    We had a lovely meal in Heirloom yesterday evening. Fabulous table looking out at the harbour. Service was so friendly and attentive. And the food was excellent. Prawns and sea bass were superb. Oh, and great cocktails too !

    The room is carefully and sumptuously designed; the marina view is extraordinary; the cocktails were precisely mixed and beautifully served; the menu was exquisite both in flavor and in presentation; and the staff--Asanda and Zina in particular--were graciousness defined. We'll be back!

    I dined here for the first time on Christmas Day. It was a really lovely experience… starting from the welcome to the ambiance and the attentive staff. The food was amazing, each course being a sizzle and dance of the taste buds. They also accommodated my gluten free dietary requirements. I will certainly be back.

    We had a wonderful time at Heirloom and the Cape Grace for Christmas Eve. A very special place. However the booking process initially, as well as the service at Heirloom, for one of SA's top Hotels en Restaurants, were a 0/10 experience. If you can up that it will be 5 star experience,
